I am daughter,although my parents have passed, a wife, mother and grandmother, and now another woman battling breast cancer. These are a few thoughts about my life and life in general. Some may be humorous, some serious - just like life. Come join me!

Success!

Well - success in this case is clearly in the eye of the beholder. We did the show yesterday. AND I was correct - my name was not on the list, but there were so many empty spaces it didn't matter. We got a really good space.

They set up areas of snow for the kiddies. We weren't too close to that nor too far away. I had asked a friend and her grown daughters if they wanted to join us. And for a change my daughter wasn't too busy. Unfortunately, my friends sold nothing. Krissi sold two of six or seven fleece tied blankets so she grossed $50+, but netted $11. I sold $17, but I have no idea of net because most items were made with such few supplies.

The main thing here for me are the head bands. Thise are also a couple of my bracelets. The tiara head band sold before I could bet a pictures. The bracelets - nada, again. The blanket behind is Krissi/Katies. That is the high school colors. Those didn't sell either.

These are the tea light covers. In front are the tea light pins. I sold one. There is a sleep mask behind. Nope - no sale.

These are little covers that go over clothes pins. I think they are so cute, and would be a great teacher gift to hold papers together. Sold one! Oh well.

About Me

I was a woman who dreaded the thought of getting older and becoming a grandmother. Now being a grandmother is one of my greatest joys. Time changes us all. Hopefully for the better. Retirement is the greatest thing in the world - I wish I could have done it at 23.
